WORK will begin within weeks on building the multi-billion Queen’s Wharf development set to transform the Brisbane cityscape.
Australian-based global construction giant Multiplex has been awarded preferred contractor status for the major components of the $3.6 billion tourism precinct in the CBD.
It will include the main integrated casino resort building with its eye-catching arc-shaped facade overlooking the Brisbane River and the iconic 100m-high Sky Deck with 360-degree views of the city.
Queensland will hit the magic five million headcount in May, official figures show, a milestone helped by a surge in births and migration - putting real estate in the crosshairs.
ABS demography director Anthony Grubb said the state had hit 4.9m by the end of September last year and was growing at 1.7 per cent, helped along by the likes of 12,000 New South Welsh-people crossing the border last year alone.
“Natural increase and net overseas migration each added an additional 31,000 people to the state’s population in the year preceding September 2017,” he said. “The third component, net interstate migration, contributed 19,000 over the same period, including a net flow of 12,000 from New South Wales.”

Redbank Plains will directly benefit from the development in Greater Springfield ($32 billion UDIA winning development area), which is fast becoming Brisbane’s second CBD and business heart of the high-growth Western Corridor. Located within 7 minutes of the Springfield CBD, Redbank Plains' close proximity to major employment, motorway connections, educational and health precincts positions it as a growth node for the future.
